# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Michael VI Bringas took the throne in 1056, already old enough to earn the epithet "the Old." The empire's soldiers gave him another name — Stratiotikos, "the Warlike" — though the irony became clear when those same military forces grew dissatisfied with his rule. Within a year, the regime collapsed. He was deposed in 1057 and died shortly after, around that same year, one of the briefest reigns in Byzantine history.
